THE G.-D's HYPOORAJY.
From the st. Louis Republican .


The Globe Democrat of yesterday,
with a sincerity peculiar to its general
character, attempted to upbraid the
Missouri general assembly for inserting
a proviso in the railroad bill declaring
that nothing in the measure should be
construed to require common carriers
to give the use OF their terminal tracks
to other common carriers. A bill pro-
viding for the common use of terminal
tracks by all roads was introduced by
Senator Castleman at the regular ses-
sion, and again by Representative
Knapp at the called session. While
those bills were pending at both ses-
sions the Globe Democrat had nothing
but abuse for the general assembly and
denunciation for the proposed law
Were it not tor the efforts OF the
be-Democrat and other railroad
organs, and of legislators subsidized
by the railroads, it would not have
been necessary for the friends OF leeis-
lation to tolerate declaration in the bill
against terminal facilities. The pOiiti-
cal friends of the CD. in the general
assembly were the most eager and
ardent servants of Jay Gould, and il
the commerce of St. Louis is TO he
hampered for some time longer the
CD. and its friends must stand the
blame,

THE YACHTS.

The New York Herald of last Sun
day contained this paragraph:-"Ift the
Thistle can beat the Irex-as related in
today's Herald over the Commercial
cable-one hour in eight, what is the
Thisile's comparative speed alongside
OF the Volunteer? The May flower was
never credited with the capacity TO
give the lrex that much odds, nor is it
likely that the Volunteer is one eighth
faster than the Mayhower. 1t the
race at kirn yesterday was not won by
lucky finke the Americas cup Is
i'll greater danger of taking a foreign
cruise than at any time since it first
crossed the Atlantic" This ia in line
with what was said in these columns
last Saturday. The Indications are
that our skiilful designers and handy
tars are to have tougher time than
ever to keep the America cup at home

Loss seems too bitter. gain too late;
Too heavy burdens in the load,
And too few he.per on the road
And j y is weak and grief is strong.

That am glad the good aud i'll

Each time my lips the words repeat;
Not as WILL" the darkness feels
More safe than light when this thought steal
Like whispered voice 10 calm and bless
All unrest aud all loneliness.
"Not as l Will" because the One
Who loved us first and last has gone
Before US on the road, and still
For US must all his love fulfill

Yet still, still flows the Crystal Spring: and
sometimes, lingering near.
Fond lovers nav its legend gray, the tribute

And some there be who dare to say that

AT History's final judgment day lofty RANK
may claim"
But though the Past so vaguely vast In lime :

Like red star, by being far, hath gained
golden hue
Yet just as noble deeds there are, Right Now

The Captive Brook.
BY LAURA F. HINSDALE.

4 brookiet from the mountains sped,
And wandered on its merry way;
It wandered where its fancy led,
The livelong night. the livelong day.
1t sang of dells where bird-songs flow,
1t sang of haunts where lilies grow,
1t sang in tones that Il vers know,
All day, all day.
The sunbeams on its ripples lay,
And laughter through lis caden-e broke
And as it danced away, away,
Unnumbered harmonies awoke.
1t loitered by the dropping flower,
1t sang Il e lOve-dream of the bower,
The song was new from hour TO hour,
All day, all day.
A miller came, one morn O. May,
And bound the brooklet to his mill,
Where labor wears the hours away,
And its harsh sound is never still.
And round and round to fill his store
The water turns the mill wheel Ger.
But, ah the brOokiet sings no more,
All day, all day.

The songs are sung, and greatness Is nc

And wake anew the fiery tongues OF yOre
